Default Just maybe.......?

Hi Tony: Funny you should bring up the horn subject. I just pulled out a box of horns and sirens that I gathered over the years and forgotten about (comes with age). In that "bunch" is a "FORD" horn. And when I say its a Ford, it's actually off a Japanese Jeep. The shape is exactly the same as the Ford CMP. The only difference is the grill in the horn, which is only held in by a locking ring. With a little skill on a drill press, you could easily reproduce the right look for the grill. The other thing is that the finish on it is CHROME, which would give your vehicle a slightly "gay" look, unless you gave it a burnish and painted it OD green. Now I think it's 6 volt, but I won't know till tomorrow when I go to the shop. I will do some homework tomorrow, take some pictures and post them for tomorrow on the site. I also have some Chev 6 volt horns. Anyway we'll talk tomorrow. cheers....Robert

PS: Apologies to any "gays". No harm intended. R

I was going to suggest Philippine Jeepney!

I'll keep it in mind, but I might hang out longer for a genuine 6V original, one that doesn't require "Conversion Therapy" to OD.

If you have no lick on this site, keep an eye on ebay for terms like "vintage ford horn" or "flathead ford horn". A quick check just now only came up with a couple close ones, but they do show up there.

Default for what it's worth....

Hi Tony; I'll post the pictures anyway, but I also have one like Rob showed which needs a resurrection of sorts.
Talk later....Robert

PS: I had the one your looking for many years ago, but I'm sure I sold it to Andrew Rowe of this forum. R
